Joe DiMassimo, Baseball
Dimassimo enters his second season in a Trailblazer uniform after transferring into MCLA in the fall of 2015. He has seen action at numerous positions throughout his first two years, but seems to have settled in as a second basemen.
During the teams recent trip to Winter Haven, FL., the Dalton, MA native led the team in batting and RBI's. The lefty hit at a .455 clip which included a pair of game winning hits for the Trailblazers. On March 13th, he belted his first career home run against Plattsburgh State at historic Chain of Lakes park to give the Trailblazers the lead. Just a few days later against Central (IA), he drilled a walk off single as MCLA ended the trip at 4-5.
The four wins matched last season's total and Dimassimo had a hand in making that happen. The talented junior should be a focal point of the offense this season at MCLA. Hear about Dimassimo's journey to MCLA, his hot start, and much more in this week's student athlete profile.
